But it’s perfectly OK for him to wear a baseball cap. A Jewish employee at Anne Frank House could not believe his ears when his bosses banned him from wearing a skullcap at work. Barry Vingerling turned up for work on his first day at the museum in Amsterdam and was told to take off his skullcap also called ‘yarmulke.’

Daily Mail(via Drudge) The Anne Frank House, where Jewish schoolgirl Anne Frank and her family hid from the Nazis during World War II, stands as a memorial to victims of the holocaust. The diary in which Frank documented her life in hiding became a posthumous bestseller after she perished in the concentration camp of Bergen Belsen at the age of 15.

The 25-year-old was told wearing the skullcap might endanger the neutrality of the foundation which runs the museum and ‘influence its work combating antisemitism.’

Mr Vingerling, as an Orthodox Jew, is required to keep his head covered. The Dutchman was told the brimless cap, also known as a kippah, was banned by the Anne Frank House as employees were not allowed to wear Jewish symbols.

The museum told Mr Vingerling he had to apply for formal permission to wear a yarmulke at the Anne Frank Foundation. As a temporary solution the museum said Mr Vingerling could cover his head with a baseball cap with the logo of the Anne Frank House.

The board of the Anne Frank Foundation finally concluded, after more than six months of discussions, that Mr Vingerling could wear his yarmulke.

He said he was happy to hear he could finally wear his skullcap but still did not understand why the Anne Frank Foundation had made an issue out of it for so long. ‘I work in the house of Anne Frank, who had to hide because of her identity. In that same house, why should I hide my identity?’ he said.

Anne Frank Foundation managing director Garance Reus-Deelder said the museum did not have a policy on the wearing of religious clothing.

‘We never had an employee before who wanted to wear a yarmulke, headscarf or cross,’ she said. ‘We first wanted to know if a religious expression would interfere with our independent position. The Anne Frank Foundation is an independent organisation without religious ties.’

Ms Reus-Deelder said the Anne Frank Foundation was not only a museum but also an organisation that ran dozens of educational programmes. ‘Those are directed at combatting antisemitism. We did not want that for example a yarmulke would influence that message,’ she said.

Poland, very happy to hear that. I am upset about the Polish vs German death camps issue and don’t think Israel should have made a fuss about it at this time. It’s history, let it go. Poland is an ally of Israel.

To be honest I’m surprised Western Europe hasn’t been declared an insane asylum already. How is that atheism and secularism doing for you? All of you Western Europeans are fools for turning your back on Yahweh and his son Jesus Christ, enjoy your new muslim horde f(r)iends. Or not.

Let me see, so this museum is all about a young JEWISH girl who survived for several years because she was one of the many Jewish people who Christians did all they could to help save. (See Corrie Ten Boom and many others) And this young man cant OPENLY display his JEWISHNESS while working there??? I wonder if anyone could wear a cross while working there. Sounds like the only ones who could display who they are, would be those showing the hammer and sickle.

The diary is NOT a fake. Imagine, there was a 15 year old girl who had dreams and a life to live that was taken away from her and she was savagely killed she wrote this diary and somebody found it and when her father came back from the concentration camp, it was handed to him. She is only a symbol for all the people (6 millions if you can comprehend this number) who were also killed,. Never forget.

B, is that short for BBbraind?… “another jewish tool to guilt-trip europeans.” LOL the STUPID yuorapeens dont NEED any help in being guilt tripped HAHAHAHAHAHAH they have elected leaders who have destroyed the place using the poo emmygrants HAHAHAHAHAHAH laughing at YOU FOOL!!!!

A certain consistency. Anne Frank and Family had to make their Jewishness a secret and so has the Jewish employee been asked to hide his Jewish identity. Some things in Europe don’t change or change very slowly..

Like cities in other countries, Amsterdam too has Muslims now — lots of them. Also like other cities, City Hall is run by politically correct, traitorous A-holes, who have nightmares about upsetting the Muzz. Can’t have that! That’s the real reason the Anne Frank House couldn’t have a Jewish employee wearing a yarmulke ( miraculously it has all been straightened out now.)

The AFH director gave some garbled explanation that wearing the yarmulke would somehow interfere with combating anti-Semitism. Still don’t understand it, but then we can’t all be Mensa members, now can we?. . .

Then they shouldn’t let anyone in who is wearing any muslim garb. What are they afraid of? It’s not like muslims will queue up and spend they welfare money on a Jewish girls hideout. They should make sure those old hiding places are still in service, because once the muslims take hold, it will be WW2 for the Jews all over again. My mother is from Holland, I am permanently traumatized by my parents war stories of what the Jews went through. At least Holland had the decency to wait for both my parents to die before pissing on their fight to live.

so , this AHOLE place which is SUPPOSED to be dedicated to Jews and a particular Jew who was murdered by the Nazis is gonna tell a JEW he can’t wear a yarmulke? this is total meshuggena insanity..I feel like my head is gonna explode.
